Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 441: Chapter 439 Arriving with Money [2nd Update]

Xiaobu returned home.

The next day.

The surge started online.

It all originated from the people of Korea.

They somehow found out about Xiaobu’s Weibo post and all swarmed to comment under it.

Of course, Xiaobu couldn’t understand their comments, but someone was translating for him in real time.

”Arrogant and presumptuous, actually fantasizing about surpassing the effort an entire country put in over many years.”

”Is there a term in Heavenly Dynasty called face-slapping? Sitting waiting for you to slap your own face.”

”5.34 million US dollars, do you know how huge that amount is?”

”Even 5.34 million US dollars and one cent, no need for such trouble, just surpass this number and we’ll admit defeat!”

”Yeah, exactly! Arrogant people of Heavenly Dynasty, not only hitting people, engaging in shady dealings, but also daring to talk big!”

”People of Heavenly Dynasty, dare to make a bet? If you can’t do it, apologize to Jin Hu’en, to THX, and to our Korea!”

”...”

The people of Korea are trolling Xiaobu’s Weibo.

Can this be endured?!

But don’t forget what kind of temper Xiaobu’s fans have!

Just one word, fight them.

Well, okay, two words, whatever!

”Damn Korea, do you have any shame? Is 5.34 million US dollars a lot? Do you know how much money Young Master Bu has? It’ll scare you to death!”

”You really are ignorant! Just over five million US dollars and you dare to make noise under Young Master Bu’s Weibo!”

”Can’t even do this or that, why don’t you say what happens if it was done? Still want any face!?”

”We’re arrogant and presumptuous? That’s called confidence, not arrogance! If you have the guts, stop using Chinese characters then! Who was it that once promised to abandon Chinese characters, and after so long, still shamelessly came back to use them! We haven’t charged you royalties, but if we did, it would be far more than 5.34 million US dollars!”

”A country that can’t even keep its own promises now asks others for promises, do you have any shame?”

”...”

Netizens are all on his side.

Can Xiaobu still endure?

”Come on, that son of a gun who wants to bet, come out, damn it, want to bet? I, Xiaobu Lu, will take your bet! I’m also telling you, don’t think I can’t touch you behind the internet or across the countries. Come out now, just dare to bet, and I’ll send you the contract right now, do you dare?!”

Xiaobu starts the confrontation directly!

Mom sells batches (an expression), afraid to bet?!

There’s nothing Young Master won’t dare to do.

Better yet, after Xiaobu’s Weibo went out, indeed someone stepped forward wanting to bet with Xiaobu.

And it’s nobody else, it’s the instigator—Jin Hu’en!

This guy is now being very arrogant.

He, with his own efforts, made Heavenly Dynasty and Korea challenge each other!

Of course, that’s all he thinks.

In fact, anyone with clear eyes can see, this kid is just a pawn.

Regardless of those, anyway, Jin Hu’en has stepped forward.

”Bet then, just three days’ time, if you do it, I will kneel and apologize, if you can’t...”

”If Young Master can’t do it, I will kneel down too, and give you one billion, for you to play with!”

Don’t be a wuss, just do it!

Xiaobu shows no fear.

”Alright, then I’ll wait for your contract to come over!”

Excitement oozes from Jin Hu’en’s words.

Big profit!

One billion! And Xiaobu will also kneel before him!

By then, he will gain both prestige and wealth!

He’s so thrilled he’s breaking into a sweat!

What?

What if you lose, you ask?

What a joke?

He’s going to lose?

You have to realize it looks like he’s betting against Lu Xiaobu, but in actuality, it’s Lu Xiaobu betting against Korea.

One person against the efforts of a nation over many years in just three days?

You guys actually think Lu Xiaobu can win?

Are you freaking nuts?!

As soon as the Weibo about the bet was released, it immediately caused a huge stir online.

Korea is being very noisy.

”Hahaha, courting destruction! You really dare to promise three days?”

”We’ll just sit here and wait, kid you better not run away!”

”One billion! Jin Hu’en is going to make a fortune!”

”Go go go, hurry up, Jin Hu’en is handing out red envelopes, he said he made a windfall and wants to give everyone a million!”

”Windfall?! Where did this windfall come from?!”

”Are you stupid? That billion! This is a sure win situation!”

”...”

Korea continues its noisy boasting.

But over in the Heavenly Dynasty, things seem to be more subdued.

At most, there’s some half-hearted support.

”You guys will definitely lose, Young Master Bu will definitely win!”

”Yeah, exactly! No doubt, he’s going to win!”

”It’s just 5.34 million US dollars! He’s got this!”

”...”

Though the words sound strong, they ultimately convey a feeling of lacking confidence.

Actually, this isn’t just a feeling, it truly is a lack of confidence.

”What is Lu Xiaobu doing?!”

”Yeah, this is too rash, the previous Weibo was okay, since there was no specified time limit, so worst case scenario, he could still beat them after a year. But now? Three days? What can be done in three days? Even if they really want to import, it’s impossible to manage within three days!”

”He really didn’t think this one through!”

”Sigh, I can’t even imagine what it will be like in three days!”

”...”

It’s not just them.

People close to Lu Xiaobu who saw these Weibo posts are going crazy as well.

Lu’s father picked up the phone: ”Xiaobu, tell me the truth, was that Weibo post just a moment of bravado, or do you really have confidence? If it was just bravado, push the blame onto me. Say I’m getting senile in my old age and posted nonsense!”

”Dad! Stop messing around! Who curses themselves like that?” Lu Xiaobu rolled his eyes but felt warmth in his heart. No matter the circumstance, his father was always like a mountain of support: ”I really do have confidence! Trust me!”

”Alright!” Lu’s father pondered for a moment but still chose to believe in Lu Xiaobu.

Even if everyone else was skeptical, he believed in Xiaobu.

...

Lu Hongbin: ”Xiaobu, I won’t ask superfluous questions, just one thing, should I go to America now to register a company, and then we can import for ourselves?”

”No need, bro, that method is too stupid, I’ve got everything arranged, don’t worry!” Lu Xiaobu reassured.

”What do you mean don’t worry! You really want to scare us to death! Do you know your sister-in-law almost got so scared she fell down the stairs!” Lu Hongbin asked, half scolding and half worried.

”Really, it’s fine!”

Lu Xiaobu kept assuring.

...

Lu Wenhao: ”Xiaobu, are you out of your mind! Wait a bit, let me think of a way, see if we can finish off Jin Hu’en. If he’s gone, the bet is gone too.”

Lu Xiaobu: ”...”

When did his second brother go from being a studious nerd to a mob boss.

...

While they were chatting, the contract for the bet hadn’t even been sent out yet.

Shimen Airport was already welcoming a large group of foreigners.

All from America!

Americans with money!
